Renee paid $4,000 in mortgage interest on a $110,000 mortgage that was taken out when she bought her home several years ago. She also has a home equity loan of $130,000 that she used to pay for a cruise around the world. The interest on the home equity loan was $8,000. What amount is deductible as interest expense for Renee in 2021

Answers

Answer:

The amount that is deductible as interest expense for Renee in 2021 is:

= $4,000.

Explanation:

a) Data:

Home mortgage - $110,000

Interest on home mortgage = $4,000

Home equity loan for a cruise around the world = $130,000

Interest on the home equity loan = $8,000

Deductible interest expense for Renee in 2021 is $4,000

b) Usually, the interest expenses that a taxpayer pays on her home equity loan to enjoy a cruise around the world, on personal credit card, on automobile loan, and on other types of personal consumer finance interests are not tax-deductible.

In order to update a production process, a company can spend money now or four years from now. If the amount now would be $20,000, what equivalent amount could the company spend four years from now at a compound interest rate of 15% per year?(All the alternatives presented below were calculated using compound interest factor tables including all decimal places

Answers

Answer: $34,980.13

Explanation:

The amount that the company will spend 4 years from now is simply the future value of the amount that it can spend today.

The amount to be spent today is $20,000 so the amount to be spent 4 years from now is the future value of $20,000:

= Amount * (1 + rate) ^ number of years

= 20,000 * ( 1 + 15%)⁴

= $34,980.13

Because there isn't one single measure of inflation, the government and researchers use a variety of methods to get the most balanced picture of how prices fluctuate in the economy. Two of the most commonly used price indexes are the consumer price index (CPI) and the GDP deflator.

The CPI for this year is calculated by dividing thecost of a given market basket of goods and services using this year’s prices by thevalue of all goods and services produced in the economy this year using the base year’s prices and multiplying by 100. However, the GDP deflator reflects only the prices of all goods and services produced domestically. Indicate whether each scenario will affect the GDP deflator or the CPI for the United States. Check all that apply.

a. A decrease in the price of a Waterman Industries deep-water reel, which is a commercial fishing product used for deep-sea fishing
b. An increase in the price of a Japanese-made television that is popular among U.S. consumers

Answers

Answer:

GDP deflator

CPI

Explanation:

The consumer price index measures the changes in price of a basket of good. It is used to measure inflation. Basket of goods includes goods produced within the country and outside the country.

CPI = (cost of basket of goods in current period / cost of basket of goods in base period) x 100

An increase in the price of a Japanese-made television that is popular among U.S. consumers will increase CPI

GDP deflator = (nominal GDP / real GDP) x 100

Gross domestic product is the total sum of final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year

Nominal GDP is GDP calculated using current year prices while Real GDP is GDP calculated using base year prices. Real GDP has been adjusted for inflation.

A decrease in the price of a Waterman Industries deep-water reel, which is a commercial fishing product used for deep-sea fishing will decrease GDP deflator

A popular hotel has continued to lose business in its room service food sales over the last five years. Using the Six Sigma DMAIC process explain what you would do in each step of the process to improve the sales - provide relevant, practical details. What statistics would you apply and why?

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Using the Six Sigma DMAIC process, I will explain what I would do in each step of the process to improve the sales.

DMAIC stands for Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and control.

What I would do first is, of course, define the nature of the problem. To define exactly what is the root of the drop in sales in the hotel. That would allow me to establish proper goals and define a strategy to implement. If a need to do surveys to customers or unsatisfied clients, I would do that. Listening to customer feedback would provide the necessary information.

Then, I have to measure the performance of my employees. Monitoring and evaluate the productivity of the people who work in the organization.

I have to analyze if the productivity ratio of each employee to know if they are performing to the maximum of their capabilities.

In this case, I could use a Pareto chart or the 80-20 rule, to assess productivity in the company.

I have to pay attention to the causes of poor performance and poor quality service. There is an interesting analysis called Root Cause Analysis (RCA) that can be useful in this case.

Once identified and eliminated the root or causes of the problems, then it comes de Improve the process to enhance the performance in every area of the organization. I would have to get people on the same page and focus on one problem at a time to doing things right.

Another model that could be useful in this scenario would be Design of Experiments, commonly known as DOE, which helps resolve complex issues

Finally, the control of everything implementation and solution to confirm it has been established the right way with the desired results. This could be part of the continuing Quality Control process- The poke yoke system would be a good option to be contemplated.

As a manager, you are trying to decide how to best layoff 10% of your workforce. You are considering laying off the 10% who are the oldest in age, because you feel that they are closest to retirement anyway. Which of the following types of justice would you most likely violate the rules of by doing this?
A. Distributive
B. Procedural
C. Interpersonal
D. Informational

Answers

Answer:

B. Procedural

Explanation:

Remember, the procedural type of justice focuses on identifying the best way to treat others in a fair way, such as following the adhering to the rule of no bias when administering justice.

In this scenario, if the manager decides to select and lay off 10% of his workforce based on their age range, he would be unintentionally displaying an age bias in his selection process, which of course most likely violates the rules of this type of justice.

Cullumber Corporation has announced that its net income for the year ended June 30, 2017, was $1,353,412. The company had EBITDA of $4,948,000, and its depreciation and amortization expense was equal to $1,128,000. The company's average tax rate is 34 percent. What was its interest expense

Answers

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Net income = $1,353,412

Tax rate is 34% hence the company's EBT amount is calculated as

EBT = $1,353,412 / 0.66 = $2,050,624.24

Add back Depreciation and amortization to the EBT

= $2,050,624.24 + $1,128,000

= $3,178,624.24

The difference between the above and EBITDA amount will be the interest expense for the year

= $4,948,000 - $3,178,624.24

= $1,769,375.76

Therefore, the interest expense is $1,769,375.76

A company uses return on investment (ROI) to measure the performance of its business units. The company manufactures and distributes consumer goods. Last year, management identified a possible shortage of raw materials. To mitigate this risk, a large amount of raw material was bought in advance and stored in the manufacturing plant inventory. As a result of this decision, ROI will A. Have an unpredictable change. B. Decrease. C. Increase. D. Not change.

Answers

Answer: B. Decrease

Explanation:

Return on investment refers to the ratio between the net income and investment. It should be noted that a high return on investment implies that the investment's gains compare favourably to the cost.

In this scenario, since a large amount of raw material was bought in advance and stored in the manufacturing plant inventory, this will lead to an increase in the cost of production which therefore will reduce the return in investment.

Therefore, the correct option is B.

Prosecutors representing the Securities and Exchange Commission recentlyannounced criminal charges against 13 individuals for engaging in insidertrading. According to the SECs director of enforcement, a trading ring acting on inside information compromises the marketsintegrity and investorstrust. . . . Explain why.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

Insider trading compromises the integrity of the market because insider investors have non-public information about the stocks of the company that could very much impact the value of the stock of the company. In other words, an insider knows what the public doesn't know about a company and it allows him an unfair advantage to trade the stocks of the company using this information and make large unusual profit. This could lead to market collapse as investors are no longer encouraged to invest seeing that they can't trust that the market is transparent and trustworthy(they don't have all the important information that would affect the company)

Assume the risk-free rate is 4%. You are a financial advisor, and must choose one of the funds below to recommend to each of your clients. Whichever fund you recommend, your clients will then combine it with risk-free borrowing and lending depending on their desired level of risk.

Expected Return Volatility
Fund A 10% 10%
Fund B 15% 22%
Fund C 6% 2%

Required:
a. Which fund would you recommend to a client seeking the highest possible expected return with a maximum volatility of 22%?
b. Which fund would you recommend to a client seeking the highest possible expected return with a maximum volatility of 22%?
c. Which fund would your recommend without knowing your clients risk preference?

Answers

Answer:

Following are the solution to the given point.

Explanation:

Calculate each fund's Sharpe ratio. It Fund is the best danger reward with the highest Sharpe ratio.

[tex]\text{Sharpe Ratio} = \frac{\text{(Fund return - \text{risk free return)}}}{Volatility}\\\\\to Fund A= \frac{(10\%-4\%)}{10\%} = 0.6\\\\\to Fund B= \frac{(15\%-4\%)}{22\%} = 0.5\\\\\to Fund C = \frac{(6\%-4\%)}{2\%}=1.0\\\\[/tex]

Fund C consequently offers the best risk-benefit. and without understanding client risk preference, we will advise Fund C for any clients. If a client wants to have a 22 percent minimum volatility, we'll nevertheless propose that Fund C instead of Fund B is available, because an investor can take risk-free rates to the degree that the total portfolio volatility stands at 22 percent and deposit it in Fund C.

While under contract to play professional basketball for the Philadelphia 76ers, Billy Cunningham, an outstanding player, negotiated a three-year contract with the Carolina Cougars, another professional basketball team. The contract with the Cougars was to begin at the expiration of the contract with the 76ers. In addition to a signing bonus of $125,000, Cunningham was to receive under the new contract a salary of $100,000 for the first year, $110,000 for the second, and $120,000 for the third. The contract also stated that Cunningham "had special, exceptional and unique knowledge, skill and ability as a basketball player" and that Cunningham therefore agreed the Cougars could enjoin him from playing basketball for any other team for the term of the contract. In addition, the contract contained a clause prohibiting its assignment to another club without Cunningham’s consent. In 1971, the ownership of the Cougars changed, and Cunningham’s contract was assigned to Munchak Corporation, the new owners, without his consent. When Cunningham refused to play for the Cougars, Munchak Corporation sought to enjoin his playing for any other team. Cunningham asserts that his contract was not assignable. Was the contract assignable? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

The contract was not assignable to another club.

But, the contract (assets and liabilities) can be inherited by a successor entity using the same club, the Cougars.

Explanation:

The contract was not assigned to another club, despite the change of ownership of the Cougars.  Interestingly, the contract between Cunningham and Carolina Cougars was inheritable with the change of ownership of the Cougar Club from the formers owners, Carolina Cougars, to the new owners, Munchak Corporation.  The clause prohibiting the contract's assignment to another club without Cunningham's consent was not violated.

Feliciano Manufacturing Corporation has a traditional costing system in which it applies manufacturing overhead to its products using a predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor-hours (DLHs). The company has two products, I63E and E76I, about which it has provided the following data: I63E E76I Direct materials per unit $ 21.70 $ 65.10 Direct labor per unit $ 19.50 $ 58.50 Direct labor-hours per unit 0.80 2.40 Annual production (units) 90,000 30,000
The company's estimated total manufacturing overhead for the year is $2,063,250 and the company's estimated total direct labor-hours for the year is 45,000.
The company is considering using a form of activity-based costing to determine its unit product costs for external reports. Data for this proposed activity-based costing system appear below:
Activities and Activity Measures Estimated
Overhead Cost
Assembling products (DLHs) $ 720,000
Preparing batches (batches) 263,250
Product support (product variations) 1,080,000
Total $ 2,063,250
Expected Activity
I63E E76I Total
DLHs 24,000 21,000 45,000
Batches 1,080 675 1,755
Product variations 2,115 1,485 3,600
The manufacturing overhead that would be applied to a unit of product E76I under the activity-based costing system is closest to:________.

Answers

Answer:

Unitary cost= $30.91

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the activities rate:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Assembling products= 720,000/45,000= $16 per DLH

Preparing batches= 263,250/1,755= $150 per batch

Product support= 1,080,000/3,600= $330 per product variation

Now, we allocate costs to Product E76l:

Assembling products= 16*21,000= $336,000

Preparing batches= 150*675= $101,250

Product support= 330*1,485= $490,050

Total= $927,300

Finally, the unitary cost:

Unitary cost= 927,300 / 30,000

Unitary cost= $30.91

It has been said that Earned Value Management (EVM) came about because the Federal Government often used "Cost-plus" contractors with project organizations. Cost-plus contracting allows the contractor to recover full project development costs plus accumulate profit from these contracts. Why would requiring contractor firms to employ earned value management help the government hold the line against project cost overruns?

Answers

Answer:

Earned Value Management (EVM)

The Federal Government requires contractor firms to employ earned value management because it enables it to assess the work that has been completed against an established baseline plan in terms of technical, time, and cost performance.

Armed with this information, it is in a better position to make important project decisions and help to control over-spending.

Explanation:

Earned value management (EVM) as a integrated project management methodology details the project time schedule, costs, and scope to ensure correct measurement of project performance.  Using planned and actual values, EVM enables future predictions, improving the ability of project managers to adjust according to requirements.

b. $135.00
c. $150.00
d. $240.00

Answers

Answer:

d. $240.00

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what should the 2005 price be if Thor is to make the same $200,000 profit before income taxes?

2004 CM% = 12.5% ($15/$120)

2005 CM = $2,400,000 ($1,000,000 + $200,000)

2005 CM per unit = $2,400,000/80,000 units

2005 CM per unit= $30 CM per unit;

2005 selling price per unit = $30/.125

2005 selling price per unit= $240

Therefore what should the 2005 price be if Thor is to make the same $200,000 profit before income taxes is $240

Future pension liabilities are estimated based on all of the following except a.expected employee compensation levels. b.federal withholding income tax. c.employee life expectancy. d.employee turnover.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is B.

Explanation:

The correct option is B. - federal withholding income tax.

They take into considerations:

1. Their employees turnover

2. Their employees life expectancy

3. Their employees compensation level.

Federal tax level is not the issue because the payment is futuristic and federal tax can change.

You wrote a piece of software that does a better job of allowing computers to network than any other program designed for this purpose. A large networking company wants to incorporate your software into its systems and is offering to pay you $458,000 today, plus $458,000 at the end of each of the following six years, for permission to do this. If the appropriate interest rate is 8 percent, what is the present value of the cash flow stream that the company is offering you?

Answers

Answer:

$2,575,278.87

Explanation:

Present Value = $458,000 + $458,000 /(1+.08)^1 + $458,000 /(1+.08)^2 + $458,000 /(1+.08)^3 + $458,000 /(1+.08)^4 + $458,000 /(1+.08)^5 + $458,000 /(1+.08)^6

Present Value = $458,000 + $424,074.07 + $392,661.18 + $363,575.16 + $336,643.67 + $311,707.10 + $288617.69

Present Value = $2,575,278.87

So, the present value of the cash flow stream that the company is offering to me is $2,575,278.87.

Interest earned ratio = 420000 / 80000

Interest earned ratio = 5.25 times

Option c. 5.25 times is the correct answer.

Several years ago, Castles in the Sand Inc. issued bonds at face value of $1,000 at a yield to maturity of 8%. Now, with 7 years left until the maturity of the bonds, the company has run into hard times and the yield to maturity on the bonds has increased to 12%. What is the price of the bond now

Answers

Answer:

$814.10

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what the price of the bond now

Using this formula

Bond price = PV of coupon payments + PV of face value

Bond price= C×((1 / r) – {1 / [r(1 + r)t]}) + FV / (1 + r)t

Let plug in the formula

Bond price= [(.080 ×$1,000) / 2] ×[[1 / (.12 / 2)] – (1 / {(.12 / 2)[1 + (.12 / 2)](7 ×2)})] + $1,000 / [1 + (.12 / 2)](7 ×2)

Bond price= $814.10

Therefore the price of the bond now is $814.10
